Roel Carlier

Supply Chain Program Manager @ Delhaize

Antwerp, Belgium

I am a supply chain professional with 20+ years of experience, including 13 years specializing in project management. As a program manager I most recently lead a big project portfolio while coaching a 10+ person team of project managers and coordinators. I successfully delivered high-impact initiatives including operational outsourcing, warehouse relocations, and TMS/YMS system implementations. As a certified Lean Black Belt, I have facilitated a companywide lean transformation. Therefore, I worked across multiple departments in co-creation with the teams to realise measurable efficiency gains.
